Abstract :
This comment pinpoints and rectifies the misconception in the paper of Moeneclaey, Starzac and Meyr (see ibid., vol.36, no.7, p.867-74, 1988) where additive channel noise effects have been confused with phase jitter effects, leading to wrong, interpretations of basic synchronizer functionalities.
